What is a String?

A data type represented as a sequence of characters

Immutable in majority of programming languages, but are subject to manipulation

Defining a String

To create a string, assign text data to a variable, using quotes to indicate it’s a string.

# define your strings
greeting = "hello brawler"
usrname = "magic05"

# print strings
print(greeting)
print(usrname)

hello brawler
magic05

%%js 

// define your strings
let greeting = "hello brawler";
let usrname = "magic05";

// log strings in console
console.log(greeting);
console.log(usrname);
